Reloading and Editing the Chair
After re-opening the project, the chair created as a static mesh lost polygon selection capability.

Solution:

Use PolyGroup Edit to continue editing with face/edge/vertex tools.

Recommendation: Use Dynamic Mesh for editable models across sessions.

🔹 Rebuilding Chair Using Dynamic Mesh
Recreated the simple chair model with:

Seat: 50×50×10 cm

Legs: Extruded 4 legs using Insert Loop and Extrude

Armrests and backrest: Created using Push/Pull, Cut Tool, and Offset

🔹 Advanced Edge Operations
Introduced Cut Tool to manually slice geometry across irregular faces.

Demonstrated Insert Loop combined with Move Edge Tool for precise height adjustments.

🔹 Bevel Tool Explained
Created a test box to demonstrate bevel:

Bevel distance controls the roundness of an edge.

Subdivisions increase smoothness.

Applied bevel on chair legs and armrest edges to round sharp corners.

🔹 Working with Edge Loops & Edge Rings
Used Edge Loop and Edge Ring options under PolyGroup Edit- Edge Mode.

Enabled easier mass-selection of edge loops and adjusted them for refinement.

🔹 Push/Pull vs Delete
Used Push/Pull instead of delete to avoid normal and shading issues.

Cutouts and armrest gaps were created with Push/Pull for clean geometry.

🔹 TriSelect Tool (Triangle Selection)
Enabled brush-based selection for triangles.

Demonstrated reducing chair height by selecting and moving triangle sets.

🔹 Finalizing and Saving the Chair
Used XForm - Duplicate to copy the dynamic chair.

Used Convert to convert the duplicated dynamic mesh into static mesh.

Saved final mesh as SM_SimpleChairCompleted for reuse across levels/projects.

🔚 Conclusion and What’s Next
Fully modeled a clean, reusable chair with detailed editing tools.

All tools in the Select tab explored.
